Super User PhishLI Posted April 25, 2019 Super User Posted April 25, 2019 Whipped out a sharpie on my lunch break and doodled this one up. Second cast right after work on the edge of a pad field and I had one. Went back at dark and got another. There're perch here so I figured I'd try. The stock color wasn't getting bit anyway. The sharpie hasn't faded at all. Fished it again this morning and the color stuck nicely. 8 Quote

Big Swimbait Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 That Dark Sleeper is becoming my favorite bait, which is something considering I usually prefer to throw the big stuff. 1 Quote

I mostly slow roll it with a steady retreive just above the bottom with the tip up to keep it from plowing up goo. But it seems to get bitten regardless of retreive speed, hops, pops, etc. 17 hours ago, 1201vilbig said: That Dark Sleeper is becoming my favorite bait, which is something considering I usually prefer to throw the big stuff. Me too, and everyone of my buddies that bought them after I started sticking them regularly with the sleeper. It's like the wacky rigged senko of swimbaits. 1 Quote

I get more hits fishing it like a jig. But when reeling back in to make your next cast, hold on. I think they stalk it, then hammer it when it tries to "get away". 1 Quote
Derek1 Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Tried it a few times, havnt got anything yet. Should be a great bait I think. Quote
